Alcatraz Mentioned on Origins Bio....

[TheNathanNS]

Hey all.

I was on the COD site and saw this on Origins's map bio.

http://uploadffs.nl/images/2013/08/12/XW8Hr.png

As I hope you can see, it says "ALCATRAZ"

If you don't believe me, check here: http://www.callofduty.com/blackops2/dlc ... se#origins

So I think this map ties in with Mob of the Dead.

Also backed up by the blood things Richtofen had on his belt that match Finn and Sal's serial numbers that we saw during the Origins trailer.

What do you think it means?

Really odd this......

EDIT: I accidently put Buried instead of Origins. FACEPALM.

Sorry about that. :\

[Vyhl]

Didn't alcatraz have the same type of photo? Maybe they just re-used it and forgot to take it out? Still brings up questions with Richtofen having those blood vials.

[TheNathanNS]

I personally think [and hope] that Origins requires MOTD's EE to unlock a "Origins end game" like Buried had if you done all 3 eggs.

Or we may have a cameo from Sal and Finn. Which is highly unlikely. A mention of them will be probably be made by Richtofen.

[MarkoRibeiro]

Well,maybe Origins is really on an alternate timeline?An alternate timeline in that MOTD could be setled?This would just eliminate any chances of MOTD being in Purgatory/Hell,as crazier as this sounds.

God,I think I'm overthinking too much.Never mind.

[Rissole25]

Can you check MotD and Die Rises (and Buried too? you say you're on it but it says Origins and I don't understand) page as well? If its there than it looks like a static image on all pages. If not, than you may have found a connection.

The mobsters would be in their 20's by the looks of it during this map. So it's possible.

Sorry about that everyone, I accidently put Buried instead of Origins. Epic fail on my part. XD

It;s only on Origins and MOTD.

Die Rise: http://uploadffs.nl/images/2013/08/12/TtuS.png

Mob of the Dead: http://uploadffs.nl/images/2013/08/12/RJ78h.png

Much clearer here for obvious reasons, but it looks like Origins used the exact same font/template MOTD used for ALCATRAZ.

Buried: http://uploadffs.nl/images/2013/08/12/Jh0rL.png

First of all, is that some Windows Black I see? Very nice.

Secondly, nice find. I doubt we'll see our American mobsters in WW1 France, but Origins will tie into Mob of the Dead, I'm sure.

[MarkoRibeiro]

He may have found a connection.There's nothing mentioning Alcatraz in other DLCs(with exception of MOTD).

If you want,check it yourself,Rissole:

I think Treyarch just put the wrong background image behind the Origins' description.

If you look closely you can see that there are actually two seperate images, one with the Soldier and the other being the Alcatraz background image, if they were connected/this was done on purpose you would think they would put some effort into making the two blend together better.

Yeah.That's considerable too.But,for how much time has the image been there already?I think they could have fixed it,no?

[CrazyTrain0917]

Would it not be possible that some of the MOTD characters fought in the war?

[scottyboy8341]

Also the newspaper on the MotD load screen has 1917 dated on it. I think there is going to be something tieing these two maps together. Treyarch doesn't just do things like that without a reason. The anticipation os going to kill me .

[Flammenwerfer]

Would it not be possible that some of the MOTD characters fought in the war?

Maybe, but World War 1 was a pretty big deal to most people who fought in it. I'm sure that if any of them participated in it, they would have mentioned it somehow in Mob of the Dead.

[captinslog]

Unless their memory really was wiped more than they know . Maybe the Bi planes are the connection with lightning and such similar to MOTD.

They remembered things from their childhood. I don't know how they could all have a large, random portion of their memories wiped. Just doesn't seem likely to me.

[DaPikmin]

Wouldn't it connect even more because one of them (forgot who) mentioned Nikolai before?

[Flammenwerfer]

Yes, Albert mentioned the name while using the Ray Gun. However, we don't know what the connection is, if there even is one at all.

[Undead Nightmare]

Yes, Albert mentioned the name while using the Ray Gun. However, we don't know what the connection is, if there even is one at all.

He's got a point though. We might finally find out why Al even mentions him.

Also, since Albert designed the plane, Icarus, maybe its possible that he knew how from the war. You know, with all the biplanes in Origins, it could explain that.

Unless you want to say that he figured how to build it from so many times of reliving the same night over and over. Trial and error, if you will.

Just a thought.

[iPhoneawesome123]

Oh my GOD!!!!!

Al Arlington is SOOO totally gonna be referenced in Origins

[Stop Mocking Me0]

One of richtofen's quotes while in zombie form is: There must be SOME way to break the cycle....

[Eib Moz]

Dude...Sick Windows Black. (Tell me how I can do this, I have W7.) Any what...I clicked on the linked and noticed a description that allure my attention.

"as well as the ruins of a mysterious and ancient location."

http://www.callofduty.com/blackops2/dlc/dlc4-apocalypse#origins

What mysterious and ancient location is found in the trench war of World War 1.

Also, I noticed something really awesome in the Apocalypse trailer. It is the movement and scale size of the robot's feet. It's a 3 second shot. Compare to the characters, it the size of Tranzit Bus Model. Here's the link.

Skip to 0:47 in the video and watch up to 0:50. Look at the top right corner. Your welcome. :mrgreen:

lol, I beat you both to posting, but didn't make it a topic lol good job mate,

viewtopic.php?f=155&t=34851&p=324436#p324436

too many coincedences now, this, the nikolai quote, blood vials, newspaper clip,..

and I mean moon and ntz, ascension and five, nacht and transit(not sure bout this one)

edit: motd and origins are connected, but how?

[TheNathanNS]

First of all, is that some Windows Black I see? Very nice.

Dude...Sick Windows Black. (Tell me how I can do this, I have W7.)

Lol, it's the Windows Vista visual style for Windows 7. I turned the transparency off and made the windows black. 8-)

If you want it, http://fediafedia.deviantart.com/art/Vi ... -133369018

[Make sure you have your Windows patched also make a system restore point if your going to install the explorer.exe, it's optional however.]

Anyway, back on topic.

Maybe, just maybe, the M4 met the O4.

Perhaps, this is a long shot, but they all went to Richtofen to become stronger and by doing so, angered god/satan and that's why they have those numbers on MOTD....

Anyway a list of coincidences:

Weasel: Nikolai, Nikolai, Nikolai, why do I keep hearing that name?

The 1917 on MOTD's loading screen matching Origins' year date.

Alcatraz on Origins bio.

Blood things on Richotfen's belt matching Finn and Sal's inmate numbers.

Richtofen in Buried, if Maxis wins: There has to be some way to break the cycle!

Oddly, both maps have 2025 weapons. Well, at least I thought I saw the Ballista in the trailer. That was in 2025. :|

Personally, I have a feeling we'll see the MOTD's names scrawled on the lab walls. IDK Why I just have that feeling.

Could be, another thing i noticed was when in the trailer we are travelling by the tank one of the character had a Remington shot gun, therefore proving that weapons from the future exist. So could it be that they time travelled to Alcatraz, got the blood and then teleported to origin. Its a long shot but think about it, Samantha in richtofens body, therefore we can agree that maxis has some sort of contact with her. Maybe they want to overthrow richtofen by letting satan in control? I dunno, its a longshot and maybe stupid but at this stage i guess anything is plausible.
